Being a parent is the number one hardest job I have ever had in my entire life. However, it is also the most rewarding. You have these little babies that are so dependent on you for everything and it’s your job to teach them and instill in them the character traits that will shape them into a respectful, honest and upstanding person. When I was asked to review the book, Strong and Kind: And Other Important Character Traits Your Child Needs to Succeed
About the Book
In her new book STRONG and KIND: And Other Important Character Traits Your Child Needs to Succeed, Korie Robertson – New York Times bestselling author, wife of Duck Commander® CEO Willie Robertson, star of A&E’s Duck Dynasty, and mother of five – argues that developing good character in our children is the single most important thing we can do to help ensure they lead happy, healthy adult lives. Robertson explores key traits and what they truly look like in action, asks readers to select the two traits that they hope to see most in their children, and shares hands-on ways for nurturing strength of character. Written with her mother Chrys Howard and featuring stories and wisdom from husband Willie, STRONG and KIND cuts through the contemporary cacophony of parenting manuals to rediscover, unfold, and embrace the enduring wisdom that has guided the best parents for centuries.
My Thoughts On Korie Robertson
So, I really enjoyed this book. As the title suggests, strength and kindness are two traits that Korie Robertson writes about, but the other character traits she talks about are:
- Self-Control
- Honesty
- Compassion
- Patience
- Joyfulness
- Loyalty
- Humility
Those traits are exactly what I would like to instill in my kids. What I like most about this book is that it is written in a way that it doesn’t feel like Korie Robertson is preaching at you. Instead, it’s like you are sitting across from one another and having a chat!
